    I like the SKS, but it's no T81. The T81 has a much better safety, is lighter and handier, takes magazines without stupid duckbills, and has adjustable gas system and pistol grip standard. It's a more feature rich gun.

    It would be like saying a Remington 742 is better than a FN-FAL because it's cheaper and shoots the same ammo. That doesn't make it true to most people who would have to use one.
    Keeping it real on the range since before there was a CGN.

    Cycle the safety switch while pulling,mine was like that till I fiddled around with it....even though the gun was greasy,I found the bolt needed oil sprayed on it,I also had gas selector between 0 and 1, noticed after first shot

    I flipped the safety switch as a member suggested and now it all functions perfectly. as for the bend, it sure looks bent but i tied a piece of string straight and put it up to it and it seems to be mostly straight

    An SKS isnt faster to reload than any mag fed gun.

    When you look at these from the top, there is a bit of an illusion of a bend due to the bolt being exposed on one side and the cover on the other.

    It's definitely not out of spec according to these battle rifle standards, also, turn your safety switch from safe to fire and the bolt will go back

    I do like my Type 81 a lot, NO regrets buying it at all! .... BUT that being said, for the same price as a Type 81, you can have a HIGHLY modified SKS which could have a fully adjustable stock with pistol grip, duckbill'ess mags, AK mag release, a threaded muzzle and brake, improved trigger, a scope mount AND a reasonable optic. The gun might not be lighter or better balanced, but it would have better parts support, have no misaligned parts lol and shoot twice as accurate.

    To anybody reading this, you should honestly buy BOTH tho, buy an SKS because its an SKS, and everyone should own one..... and buy a Type 81 to really scratch that NR AK look alike itch you might have!
